Workshop: July 13th-14th
This interdisciplinary workshop brings together scientists from Physics, Medical Physics and Mathematics, which are developing models, methods and experiments for Coupled Physics Imaging (CPI). These tomographic techniques use different physical fields for illumination and probing. The prime example in this field is Photoacoustics, which uses (typically) pulsed infrared light for illumination and measures the ultrasonic response of the material. The techniques for modeling the illumination process is typically done with simplified models of Maxwell's equation, the discovery of the possibility of sound waves into electromagnetic waves and vice verse is associated with Alexander Graham Bell. This effect is of inherent use in telecommunication technology. Last but not least, the reconstruction of the imaging parameter of CPI is performed by solving Inverse Problems for the wave equation, which is realized by generalized Radon transform. In this workshop we bring together scientists from these areas to interact on all aspects of CPI.

Recent Progress on Quantitative Reconstructions in Photoacoustics with Nonlinear Physics
Photoacoustic tomography (PAT) is a non-invasive imaging modality that aims at inferring optical properties of heterogeneous media from photoacoustic measurements. I will review some recent mathematical and computational progresses on quantitative reconstructions in different variants of photoacoustic tomography.
S. Arridge
Dynamic PhotoAcoustic Tomography
PhotoAcoustic tomography (PAT) has become a powerful new imaging technique combining high-resolution and novel contrast mechanisms as an example of so-called "Coupled Physics Imaging" methods. As in many imaging modalities there is a trade-off between acquisition speed and resolution. This is especially relevent when considering time-varying imaging (4D) and multispectral imaging (5D). In this talk we present recent developments in i) a compressed sensing approach to data acqusition using novel multi-detector/random sampling schemes and ii) the application of novel spatio-temporal regularisation methods.

Overview of so-called qualitative methods in inverse scattering theory
We shall give first a unified presentation of so-called sampling methods to solve the inverse shape problem, where one would like to reconstruct the geometry of an inclusion from multi-static measurements at a fixed frequency. We put a focus on three methods: the Linear Sampling Method, the Factorization Method and the Generalized Linear Sampling Method. Extension of these methods to handle the case of unknown backgrounds will then be discussed. We finally present how these methods can be used to construct various spectral signatures of the material properties. We end up with some applicative perspectives and open questions.
G. Alberti
Non-zero constraints in quantitative coupled physics imaging
The reconstruction in quantitative coupled physics imaging often requires that the solutions of certain PDEs, e.g. the conductivity equation, the Helmholtz equation or Maxwell's equations, satisfy certain non-zero constraints, such as the absence of critical points. From the mathematical point of view, it is then interesting to see whether one can construct suitable boundary values (the illuminations used to probe the object), possibly independently of the unknown coefficients, in such a way that the corresponding solutions satisfy the required properties. In this talk, I will discuss several techniques used for this aim, as well as some negative results.
